The atmosphere of the West hotel was rari-
fed very considerably yesterday morning by
the presence of Roswell Miller, general man
ager Of of the Milwaukee road, and Phil d.
Armour, the Chicago pork king. As nat
ural result this rarIfed air was filed instantly
with rumors Of new railroad and stockyard
schemes for Minneapolis and st. Paul, and the
early newspaper men were flying about for
pointers. Mr.. Miller is closer than a whole
colony of CLANS, and only smiled sardonically
when approached by reporter. He is about
as interviewable as c. H. Prior. Mr.. Armour
said there was no news, and his visit. which
was on private business, unconnected with
public interest.

ROBERT GARRETT.
His Departure for Nexco-Testimony of D.
II. Bates as to His Personal Habits.

New YORK, Oct 22-Mr. Robert Garrett,
late president Of the Baltimore & Ohio Railroad
Company. leaves in the morning for a trip to
Mexico and the West He will go via Chicago
and will be accompanied by Mrs. Garrett and
two or three friends. Some Of his New York
friends went down to Baltimore today to see
him off. This occasion brought up for condemua-
ton some pit tic statements recently made in
two or three papers rejecting on Mr. CARROTS
personal and business habits. They were pro-
nounced gross exaegerations and largely untrue.
Said Mr. D. H. Bates, president Of the Balti-
more 6 Ohio Telegraph Company, to a reporter:
II have breakfAsted, lunched and dined with Mr..
Garrett more than fifty times in the past
few years. frequently in the Central building in
Baltimore, and never but once YVES there wine
or liquor served. and on that one occasion Mr..
Garrett partook but sparngy, causing me to
remark upon his abstemiousness. Many of my
engagements with him were early in the morn
ing, generally before o'clock, and never had
to wait, but always found him on hand upon my
arrival, with a considerable Part of his official
mail already disposed of. He was systematic in
his methods and dispatched business with re-
markable rapidity, which showed a well-trained
mind, under perfect control There has been a
good deal of criticism as to the Baltimore q Ohio
Railroad Company being concerned in
telegraph system, and much speculation has
been INDUCED in and differences drawn which
unwarranted by the facts. As regards the
statement that the Baltimore g Ohio telegraph
has been an item of expense to the railroad COM
pany of $50, 600 a month for the past five years.
that statement is untrue. There has. in fact,
been no loss whatever to the Baltimore g Ohio
railroad or the Baltimore & Ohio Telegraph
Company from the operation of the telegraph
system up to last April. Since then, influences
largely beyond telegraphic control have caused
falling off. but the entire loss during the past
six months ending Sept 30, has been less than
the amount paid during the Same
period By the telegraph to the railroad
company for the Of wires and offices
on the line of the Baltimore & Ohio
railroad. The Baltimore g. Ohio extensions
were begun under nv direction. in 1884, and
were practically all completed in 1885. limited
mileage of additional wires trunk routes
only being added in 1886 and 1887. The con-
dition of these lines and the business done. and
their CAPACITY for business, were clearly shown
in interviews with DR.. Green and myself. pub
ished few days ago. Whether a railroad
company may be properly interested in a tele-
graphic system need not be considered, and
refer this subject only to show the injustice
of the criticism made on Mr.. CARROTS
connection with the telegraph. The pnb-
lie and the press have been 30 much benefited
as lead one to expect at least fair
dealing for the master spirit in the enterprise.

Free Trade.

The reduction of internal revenue
and the taking Off of revenue stamps
from Proprietary Medicines, no doubt
has largely benefited the consumers,
as we'll as relieving the burden of hoAe
manufacturers. Especially is this the
case with Green's August Flower and
Boschees German Syrup, as the re-
duction of thirty six cents per dozen,
has been added to increase the size OF
the bottles containing these remedies,
thereby giving one fifth more medicine
in the 70 cent size. The August Flower
for Dyspepsia and Liver Complaint,
and the German Syrup for Cough and
Lung troubles, have perhaps, the
largest sale of any medicines in the
world. The advantage of increased
size of the bottles will be greatly APP
preciated by the sick and afflicted, in
every town and village in civilized
countries. Sample bottles for 10 cents
remain the same size.
